Harvey Weinstein’s Rape Conviction , Is Overturned.
New York's Court of Appeals
overturned the movie mogul's 2020 rape conviction by a vote of 4-3 on April 25.
According to the appeals court, trial judge James Burke "prejudiced Weinstein with 'egregious' improper rulings," AP reports. .
For example, he let women bring forth allegations against Weinstein that he wasn't charged with.
The action was an "abuse of judicial discretion," the appeals court said. .
Without question, this is appalling,
shameful, repulsive conduct that
could only diminish defendant’s
character before the jury, New York's Court of Appeals, via AP.
Although this conviction has been overturned, the 72-year-old will remain in prison due to a separate 2022 rape conviction in Los Angeles.
His lawyers have chosen to
appeal that conviction as well. .
Jennifer Bonjean, who helped free Bill Cosby from
prison, issued a statement about the development.

A jury was told in California that
he was convicted in another
state for rape ... turns out he
shouldn’t have been convicted
and it wasn’t a fair conviction… , Jennifer Bonjean, Harvey Weinstein's attorney, via AP.
It interfered with his
presumption of innocence in
a significant way in California, Jennifer Bonjean, Harvey Weinstein's attorney, via AP.
On April 25, prosecutors said that "the legal issues identified by the New York Court of Appeal are
not present in the Los Angeles County Case.".
The Manhattan district attorney's office
said they will "do everything in our power to
retry this case, and remain steadfast in our commitment to survivors of sexual assault."

Global Chocolate
Supply Impacted, By Cacao Tree-Killing Virus.
'Newsweek' reports that the price of chocolate
may be increasing after a virus ravaged cacao
trees in western Africa - significantly in Ghana.
'Newsweek' reports that the price of chocolate
may be increasing after a virus ravaged cacao
trees in western Africa - significantly in Ghana.
According to a new study published in the journal
'PLoS ONE,' between 15% and 50% of the harvest
of cocoa trees in Ghana has been lost due to
cacao swollen shoot virus disease (CSSSVD). .
Small insects called mealybugs are responsible for
spreading the virus between trees, causing a number of problems including leaf discoloration and distorted growth.
Small insects called mealybugs are responsible for
spreading the virus between trees, causing a number of problems including leaf discoloration and distorted growth.
So far, over 250 million cacao trees
have already been killed by the virus. .
This virus is a real threat
to the global supply
of chocolate, Benito Chen-Charpentier, Study co-author and a professor of
mathematics at The University of Texas at Arlington, via 'Newsweek'.
'Newsweek' reports that the virus has proven to be
hard to prevent since mealybug vectors are
extremely hard to control by conventional means.

Pesticides don't work well against
mealybugs, leaving farmers to try
to prevent the spread of the disease
by cutting out infected trees and
breeding resistant trees. But despite
these efforts, Ghana has lost more than
254 million cacao trees in recent years, Benito Chen-Charpentier, Study co-author and a professor of

Mealybugs have several ways of
movement, including moving from
canopy to canopy, being carried
by ants or blown by the wind, Benito Chen-Charpentier, Study co-author and a professor of

What we needed to do was create a model
for cacao growers so they could know how
far away they could safely plant vaccinated
trees from unvaccinated trees in order to
prevent the spread of the virus while keeping
costs manageable for these small farmers, Benito Chen-Charpentier, Study co-author and a professor of
